+The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The dog stays blissfully asleep. :)
+
+Since last time, I have found a bit more resolve on what I'm going to do about 
+this whole PhD thing. I have decided I am going to earnestly try to find a topic
+that fits with the lab's formal methods bend--at least for the rest of the 
+spring and into the beginning of the summer. I am taking action to try and find
+a topic, like trying to read more surveys and actually doing things. This past 
+week was not necessarily super successful in that regard, but on the margins was
+an improvement. Oh, well.
+
+There is a couple reasons I think this is the right move. First, I am already 
+here. Any other route that ends with my PhD will add extra time before I am 
+finished. Any job search right now is also probably not a great idea, since 
+Trump and his merry men are starting a trade war, and consequently likely a 
+recession. I am in a good position right now, and there is value in taking stock
+of the opportunity that I have. 
+
+Robert also lended some helpful advice: certainly the topic of my PhD does not
+pigeon hole me into a field for the rest of my career. I think this is true in 
+a restricted sense, but not in the general sense. For my sake, this means if I 
+do something formal methods adjacent, it does not mean I need to be stuck in 
+formal methods forever, but also I should be careful that the work I do also
+lends itself to another field I find interesting. One such area is perhaps using
+formal methods with artificial intelligence to leverage these tools to create
+explainable AI based control. 
+
+I need to read more to really understand what that can be. Update to come.
+
+Now for a slight change of pace, some more personal details.
+
+The pursuit of an apartment for Amber and I continues to be a contentious topic.
+Amber was quite upset coming back from her trip that I 'did not take care of
+myself'--her accusation is that I did not eat balanced meals or in general act
+with personal motivation to do things that are good for me. This also compounded
+with my food habits with my night classes. I have eaten out a lot recently before
+class instead of cooking food at home the night before or so. Amber attributes 
+this to lazyness. This argument culminated in her saying that she feels more 
+like a mom than a girlfriend. That makes me really upset.
+
+Do I think she is right? Well, in terms of food, sure. She has a good point. I 
+could certainly eat better, and this past weekend I see what she is saying about
+balanced meals. Fair point and this is something I must correct. Something that
+does make me worried however is this idea that she is like my mom rather than 
+my girlfriend, and more broadly that she feels I make changes because she tells
+me so rather than because I want to on my own. This is a frustrating catch-22 in
+my opinion. If I do not learn what is upsetting her, I cannot change that 
+behavior. But, if she tells me and I do change that behavior, she takes credit 
+for it and gets upset anyways. Honestly, it makes me feel like damned in a way.
+I'll try and change nonetheless, but it is incredibly demotivating to think 
+she will believe it is just because 'she told me so'.
